The best on another very poor day at Galway came from Farfromnowhere who was 14th in a race won by Cleopatra's Needle who beat Billie Frechette by 2 1/4 lengths. The other pick Nurburgring failed to finish being pulled up 2 out, the race went to Western Fold who beat Jesse Evans by 4 1/2 lengths.
It's day 4 at Galway on Thursday with 8 races and 2 features.
2.10: Guinness Open Gate Brewery Novice Chase (Grade 3)
7: Special Cadeau: A fair horse who is a better chaser than a hurdler winning at Thurles in February and then after a poor Aintree run got back on track with a 2nd at Killarney 2 weeks ago. He ran well disputing the lead from 3 out but he was passed soon after making no impression on the run-in. He is a big player who should pick up a 3rd career win here.
4.30: Guinness Galway Hurdle Handicap (Grade 3)
5: Ndaawi: A useful horse who was a good 2nd in the County Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival when last seen in March. He tracked the leaders early challenging approaching the last, he kept on well but couldn't reach the winner. Despite being off 139 days the runner-up in this race 12 months ago can go one better here.
